This is the pits. :-((((  I'm curious as to what's going to happen next. 
Is there a posibility of someone else riding her horse? What if another
team member's horse is lame, might they swap? I had a broken collar bone
which they operated on and plated. I believe I got on a horse in 2 weeks,
and did a race in 4.  If I recall correctly, the lasting effects of the
anesthesia kept me off for at least a week and there's no way I could use
that arm to hold a strong horse back at all. I had a junior whose job was
to slow my horse down with her horse.  Anybody think there's a chance
she'll make it and ride? Anybody with inside info?  I really feel for
her. Don't know what I think about people leasing horses they didn't
train from other countries (Forgym). Sort of confuses who gets bragging
rights if there's a win.
